Studio Workshop 1 Computational Design

Catalog description

This workshop, ARCH 761, is open to all students in the Master of Science in Architecture, Computational Technologies program, specially designed to serve as a common base to all students and also as an introduction to Focus Area I Computational Design. This first workshop is designed to offer computational design skills to students taking ARCH 701B Advanced Design Studio 1 and to complement students' levels in computer skills. The workshop is organized in a series of technique-based modules on specific platforms, software and interfaces, which aim to progressively advance the ability of students to apply computation to design. The workshops will assign simple progressive applied design exercises alternating by semester and in relation to student's skills developing scripts, coding, algorithms, and visual algorithms.
